Chapter 4.1, Problem 66E
If an instrument has four valves, there are 16 possible positions for the valves. Repeat Exercise 65 for this situation.
Different notes on a trumpet are obtained by moving its three valves up and down. The given table indicates the eight possible positions for these three valves and a note that would sound if the valves were in the indicated position. Is it possible to play one of these notes and then, by changing only one valve at a time, to play all the other notes without repeating a note twice? (Hint: Consider the notes as the objects of a set and that two notes are related if one can be obtained from the other by moving only one valve.)

In a popular tale of wizards and witches, a group of them finds themselves in a room with doors which change position, making it impossible to determine which door is which when the room is entered or reentered. Suppose that there are 4 doors in the room. One door leads out of the building after 2.5 hours of travel. The second and third doors return to the room after 4 and 3 hours of travel, respectively. The fourth door leads to a dead end, the end of which is a 2 hour trip from the door.
If the probabilities with which the group selects the four doors are 0.2, 0.2, 0.2, and 0.4, respectively, what is the expected number of hours before the group exits the building?
Dr. Barton hypothesizes that if 1st grade students are assigned to practice sight word flashcards for 10 minutes every day for their first semester, they will end up reading more books in their second semester. She creates two groups of 25 students each and gives each group the same sight word flashcards. Group A is assigned to practice with the flashcards for 10 minutes every day for their first semester. Group B is not given this assignment. Each group is tasked with keeping a reading log during their second semester. At the end of 1st grade, Dr. Barton counts how many books each group has read. Group A read 68 books, and Group B read 92 books.
The control group is:
The independent variable is:
The dependent variable is:
This study shows that there is a positive correlation between 10 minutes of daily flashcard practice of sight words and the amount of books read. T/F

- Imagine a game show on television where one lucky contestant is presented with three upside-down buckets that are numbered 1, 2, and 3. Under one of the buckets is a five-ounce gold bar. Under each of the other two buckets is a lump of coal. After the game ends, the contestant receives what is under his or her bucket. The host of the game show asks the contestant to choose one of the three buckets. After the contestant makes a choice, the host lifts up one of the remaining two buckets to reveal a lump of coal under it. At this point, only two buckets remain uncovered: the bucket that the contestant originally chose and the bucket that was not uncovered by the host. The host subsequently asks the contestant if he or she would like to keep the original bucket or change buckets to the only other bucket remaining. 1.

Let Y record the position of the hit, so that Y=y>0 corresponds to missing the target point to the right by y cm Y=-y<0 corresponds to missing the target to the left by y cm.
